Englewood Real Estate

Englewood's beginnings are traced to gold. In the mid-1800s, prospectors on their way to California stopped in Colorado to pan its streams. One of these prospectors was a man from Georgia named William Green Russell.

He and 12 other miners found gold in the South Platte River, and established a Placer Camp near the confluence of Little Dry Creek and the South Platte River in an area that would eventually become Englewood.

Today's Englewood is a distinct reflection of its colorful history. There is still a focus on transportation, education, and the arts. Developments are rising from the ground to help boost the area's economy, and Englewood boasts more jobs and businesses per square mile than any other city in the Rocky Mountain region. Transportation remains an important aspect of planning for Englewood's future.
